Abstract
Structural studies on the two binuclear cyclometallated compounds [Pd(C2,N-bzan)(μ-N3)]2 (1) and [Pd(C2,N-bzan)(μ-Pz)]2 (2) (bzan = N-benzylideneaniline) have been carried out in this work. In both compounds, C–H⋅⋅⋅π interactions play an important role in the molecular self-assembly. In complex 1, ortho-CH bonds from bzan moiety interact with the cyclopalladated ring at a distance of Cbzan⋅⋅⋅Cg 3.448(6) Å, providing a new structural evidence for the metalloaromaticity of the cyclometallated ring.
